About our favourite Brisbane team building locations
A closer look at some of the top venues and locations
South Bank
South Bank is our most popular Brisbane team building location — and for good reason. The parklands give you open space, the river backdrop makes every photo look great, and there’s no shortage of nearby restaurants and bars for a post-event wind-down. We run The Hustle, Survivor, and Graffiti Art here regularly. It’s the sweet spot for outdoor team building in Brisbane CBD.
Howard Smith Wharves
One of Brisbane’s most impressive event precincts, Howard Smith Wharves sits right under the Story Bridge on the river’s edge. The energy here is hard to beat. We run Game Shows and Amazing Race events in and around the Wharves — the combination of heritage warehouses and modern fit-out makes for a genuinely memorable day.
City Botanic Gardens
When you want something a little more relaxed but still purposeful, the City Botanic Gardens delivers. Shaded, spacious, and five minutes from the CBD — it’s ideal for wellness-focused activities like The Mindfulness Game or a tailored Scavenger Hunt that takes your team through Brisbane’s oldest parkland.
Brisbane Powerhouse
New Farm’s Brisbane Powerhouse is one of the best indoor/outdoor hybrid venues in the city. The industrial architecture creates a unique atmosphere that works brilliantly for creative team building activities like Graffiti Art and Lego Build. We’ve run dozens of events here — the team at Powerhouse are great to work with.
Fortitude Valley
Fortitude Valley’s laneways and rooftop spaces are perfect for teams who want something with a bit of edge. We use the Valley for Amazing Race-style events that take teams through the street art, arcades, and hidden laneways. It’s unlike anywhere else in Brisbane for a team day with genuine character.
